I’m delighted to see MASS HYSTERIA make your Best Of 2017 list, Brian. I’m glad this book stuck with you! Joe Hempel did a fantastic job, and it’s wonderful to see that recognized. Much obliged, sir. Thank you for all your support.
Great list. I’ve listened to most of these too!! I’ll be doing my best of 2017 in a day or two, I’m just finding it very hard to narrow it down enough!!! Lol.
